Lina Brown - [email protected]

This is an au pair scam. There is no au pair job, and the only purpose of this scam is to make you pay for non existing work permits, visa, and other travel documents. Don't fall for this scam!

Hi dear, I am Mrs Lina Brown, 35 Years Old from United State of America. Am writing you on behalf of the whole family (me, my husband and our 2 child) and here is a bit about us.

I will thereby be in need of your service as a nanny for my kids. I will appreciate your response to know if you are interested.
Thanks

SECONDDear,
Thanks a for your response. I'm from 32 South Ave Staten Island, NY 10303.

On weekends you'll take them out to new places like beach and other recreational places (You have free time). You are required to spend time with the child, running errands, house cleaning and light cooking is a possibility, but not really a requirement. I prefer someone who will reinforce our desire to teach our children responsibilities and do not expect to undertake the children assigned tasks but instead to find ways to encourage them to complete tasks.
